These last days have been hard for all the country in Mexico. But specially for those of us that are living far from our homes.
So this last 2 weeks we have been gathering a couple of sources of information regarding the H1N1 Swine Flu that is spreading in Mexico. We hope that these links help you look at more information that can affect you and your relatives. Twitter has been our main focus, since we can get data diretly from people living there day to day activities. Lots of information out there regarding new theories for the widespreading of the Influenza, but we are not going to fill you with “conspiracy theories”.

There is also a mashup from Google Maps, that is quite helpful.

It is our hope that you stay updated every day with these couple of sources and that it can help you avoid problems when traveling or going to Mexico. The only thing now that we can do is stay put and let the goverments implement a solution. But it is our part to have information and not be told whatever they see fit.
The economy has been hit hard by the economic crisis and know the outbreak, which the mexican goverment and international institutions are trying to solve. The current enviroment does not help the local, national and international sellers or buyers doing business in Mexico. We hope that they can come to a solution fast so the mexican economy can recover from both situations.
This does not look good for the real estate market, since we have seen the number of search´s declined this couple of days, regarding buying or renting a home or apartment. We have to wait and see how the demand is growing or shrinking for the real estate market in Mexico, which right now is living some chaotic times.
The only “optimistic” thing for now is that realtors will have some more time in their hands to stop and think of improving their marketing on the Internet, since now they have seen the impact from social media into the day to day lives of normal people.
Our support goes out to the people living in the affected areas and to those that are suffering from the outbreak for a quick recovery. We wish you all well.
